           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPALIVE, 1L);

           /* set keep-alive idle time to 120 seconds */
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPIDLE, 120L);

           /* interval time between keep-alive probes: 60 seconds */
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPINTVL, 60L);
